Re: PROBLEM: OOPSes in PREEMPT SMP for AMD Opteron Dual-Core with Memhole Mapping (non tainted kernel)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hardware memhole mapping never seems to work, or causes lockups right away.  I 
need to test it further though.

I have discovered that with the following features enabled:

1.  Software memhole mapping
2.  Continuous,

linux sees the entire 4GB of memory.  However, when things start getting 
requested from the upper half, there are Oopses generated.  Attached are two 
Oopses that occurred under the test scenario described.  

These results were achieved with a tainted kernel, but does that matter since 
we've already determined it happens untainted?  I need to start X in order to 
launch big memory apps.

I suppose I could write a program to consume/probe the upper memory half.  
Anyone know of a good/quicky way to do that?  

I'm really not sure what to do or where to go from here.  

Cheers,
Jacob Martin
